The shooting victim, a 28-year-old woman, remains at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. Charging documents say she was shot in the abdomen.

Police were called to the convenience store at 3500 Wheaton Way at about 12:50 a.m. after the store clerk called 911.

Bremerton police haven’t released a possible motive. Charging documents rely on a clerk at the convenience store who recognized Green at the scene, heard the gunshot and found the woman lying on the ground. Green is believed to have fled the scene on foot, according to court documents.

Police recovered a spent shell casing from the location Green was seen and taking into consideration where the woman was found and the location of her wound, investigators concluded Green is the suspect.

“Although no gun was seen, when considering the position of the spent bullet casing relevant (sic) to (the victim) and the fact that her bullet wound was on her right side, the only logical person to have fired the bullet would have been Kip Green,” a detective wrote in charging documents.

A police tracking dog found a jacket nearby that the clerk said Green was wearing, according to documents.

When police arrested Green later Thursday they recovered two guns, one that is suspected to be the firearm used in the shooting, Sgt. Aaron Elton wrote in an email, but Elton said that has not been confirmed.

Green has prior felony convictions and is prohibited from possessing firearms. In addition to the assault charge, he was charged with first-degree unlawful possession of a firearm.

Police have neither been able to speak to the victim nor two possible witnesses who could shed light on the circumstances that led to the shooting.
